• Document fiber origin with certificates of analysis specifying hemp content to comply with vegetable fiber requirements
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as cotton blend; pure hemp qualifies here but blends may shift to other subheadings
• Label construction details in commercial invoice to confirm gauze structure per HTS legal definition
